Du Qing said indifferently, "I admit, I was too immature before."
"In this cruel world, there’s nothing wrong with talent being paramount, but the effort that surpasses ordinary people is also a kind of talent."
"A hardworking genius is still a genius."
"And you and your partners’ desire to beco stronger is not inferior to anyone."
"Leng Shengnan, you are undoubtedly a bona fide genius."
He took a deep breath and looked into Leng Shengnan’s eyes, "I’m sorry, it was my mistake."
True Man Puxiang’s eyes widened, so surprised that he even stopped stroking his chin.
Others didn’t know, but he was too familiar with Du Qing.
This was possibly the first ti in Du Qing’s life that this stubborn kid apologized to soone less talented than himself... and admitted it.
"..."
After Leng Shengnan was slightly stunned, her expression began to change.
The armor on her body also started to disappear, and Xiao Jiu’s phantom appeared beside her.
The two exchanged a glance and suddenly burst into laughter together.
"Hahahahahaha..."
"Choo choo choo..."
"What do you an by that!"
Du Qing’s serious expression started to crack, revealing a look of embarrassnt and annoyance.
—He had made a decision almost never seen in his life to say these words!
If it weren’t for so inexplicable excitent in his heart, even if he admitted it internally, he would probably stubbornly refuse to say it...
However, the very next mont, he suddenly froze.
Because Leng Shengnan unexpectedly reached out and patted his shoulder, and that face, brimming with heroism and distinct lines, showed no trace of combat intent, only a look of heartfelt appreciation.
"If it weren’t for the motivation you gave , I wouldn’t have improved so quickly, thanks."
She tilted her head slightly and added, "Although your mouth is indeed quite annoying."
"..."
For so reason, upon hearing these two sentences, Du Qing returned to his usual stance, slightly lifting his head, "Hmph, then you’d better be careful not to be left behind by ."
At this mont, Du Tingbei and Liu Feifan’s jaws almost dropped.
"Hey, Old Du, are you saying your son..."
"I’m not blind!"
And on the side, True Man Puxiang’s eyes brimd with almost overflowing amusent, "True Man Bai, this..."
Bai Wu also looked a bit stunned.
He was still unmarried and childless and really had no say in this.
But looking at Du Qing’s appearance, why did he feel a slight discomfort in his heart...
"Alright, I won’t delay the matters below."
Leng Shengnan smiled and glanced at Lin Guang on the stage, as well as Chelina, Vishdair, and Lisa behind him, "You are the real highlight, aren’t you."
She turned around, left the arena, and walked toward the spectator seats on the other side.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the field beca solemn.
Du Qing also looked at him, the platinum in his eyes started to blaze again.
Liu Feifan and Du Tingbei looked towards Lin Guang, lightly swallowing.
The two True n couldn’t help but beco serious, looking at this young man who brought them so many wonders.
As his two teammates advanced by leaps and bounds, what transformation did he undergo?
And at this mont, Lin Guang finally stood up slowly, step by step, descending from the spectator’s seat, arriving before Du Qing.
"Do you need to recover a bit?" Lin Guang asked with a smile.
Du Qing exchanged a glance with the Six-winged Holy Light Beast and then shook his head, eyes burning with a hint of battle intent, "There’s no need for that."
"Then it will be the sa as before, but this ti without restrictions."
"Alright."
The scene and dialogue were just like four months ago.
But both sides could vaguely sense the transformation that the other had undergone.
Giving their all was inevitable.
Du Qing gently closed his eyes, then reopened them.
In an instant, black flas were burning in his eyes.
With this change, the wing shadows around him, the Six-winged Holy Light Beast’s six massive wings beside him, and the halo and holy spear changes related to the equipped Spirit Beast began to darken with a rebellious, fallen aura.
As each feather turned jet black, his expression seed to reveal a complex emotion of indifference and pain, yet at the sa ti, his Spiritual Power and the aura of the Six-winged Holy Light Beast soared rapidly, an almost suffocating sense of oppression gushing from his body.
Opposite him, Lin Guang continued to keep his hands together, with dark golden flas surging in his eyes.
Behind him, the ethereal blue mist silently emanated from Chelina’s sword, while the muzzle of Vishdair’s gun began to turn red, as if sothing extrely dangerous was being compressed and condensed. Lisa’s powerful ntal link had already quietly connected to everyone.
A faint heartbeat began to resound throughout the entire arena.
And the expressions of the two True n beca increasingly solemn and astonished—as Lin Guang further revealed himself, what they could perceive grew increasingly substantial.
They also began to realize... the terror of him and his companions.
"Three moves..."
"Decide the victory!"
The next mont, in everyone’s eyes filled with irrepressible astonishnt.
The clash of the two prodigies comnced.
......
A mont later.
The chaotic ether environnt slowly subsided.
Under Liu Feifan’s extrely pained gaze, the arena, which was the pride of the Experintal School, had been almost half-destroyed by the terrifying aftershock of the battle, full of cuts, explosions, and bombardnt marks. Even the underlying structural panels and the Spirit Rune Array were severely damaged.
To withstand such a level of collision was too much to ask of a civilian school’s arena.
If the True n had not acted in ti to protect, even the spectator seats might have been destroyed in the blink of an eye.
In fact, if the recent clash of trump cards had occurred on the street, with both sides’ mobility and destructive power, it would have quickly turned into a horrific scene of high-rise buildings collapsing in rows, neighborhoods destroyed, and countless casualties.
At this mont, Du Qing, slightly embarrassed, looked at the composed Lin Guang and his team, but there was no sense of defeat in his eyes, only a look full of fighting spirit.
Neither of them had lost their body-protecting spiritual artifacts and still had strength to continue, and after all, Du Qing had just won against Leng Shengnan, consuming quite a bit. One could say it was a draw.
But everyone had their own judgnt about the outco in their hearts.
Du Qing looked at Lin Guang and the others preparing to leave. The darkness in his eyes gradually turned back to platinum, and his gaze shone brightly like the morning stars as he shouted:
"For this ti’s Celestial Ladder Mountain inheritance, I will not yield in any way."
"No matter if it’s you or anyone else, I’ll give it my all to the end!"
——Du Qing, naturally a prodigy of Fenghai Province, rightfully should participate in this grand event.
Lin Guang nodded to him and smiled, "I look forward to it."
......
Night.
Buzz—
Lin Guang took out his phone; it was a ssage from Miaomiao.
[Superstar, it’s New Year next week.]
[There will be an event on the first day of the New Year at Golden Tree Square. I heard there will be a performance by a cluster of chanical spirit beasts. Not only can they launch fireworks, but they can also combine into various forms of holy beasts and fly in the air. I don’t have any relatives to visit here, so shall we go check it out together?]
[Oh, but recently Celestial Ladder Mountain has been quite mysterious, rumors say an inheritance has appeared. If it’s true, the Education Bureau will surely allot you a spot.]
[If the timing conflicts, just forget I said anything; serious matters co first!]
After reading the ssage, Lin Guang was slightly taken aback, then realized it was already the twenty-sixth of the twelfth month in the lunar calendar.
The first New Year in this world...
Lin Guang looked around; wearing a black and white maid outfit and black silk stockings, Chelina was tidying up dishes in the kitchen. Vishdair sat on the sofa, eyes on the TV yet his hands skillfully turning a spiritual artifact for training ether mastery. Lisa sat at her small desk, flipping through books, her psychic advantage allowing her to read as if in quantum speed.
Unknowingly, he was no longer alone.
Lin Guang smiled.
Coming to his senses, he replied to Miaomiao, briefly explaining the inheritance matter—it wasn’t a secret—then indicated that if the timing didn’t conflict, he would definitely take his companions out together.
Then.
He sent a ssage to Kaiwen, hoping to have a al together during the New Year.
After all, there had been no news from Kong Guofeng’s side lately, and it seed calm.
However.
Just when Lin Guang thought this New Year would peacefully pass by...
The inheritance suddenly and unceremoniously opened!
...
January 17th, according to the new calendar, and December 29th in the old calendar.
1,200 kiloters southwest of Zhen Sheng City, in the wilderness.
In the center of that vast plain.
In the sky, Kong Guofeng gradually decelerated, descending slowly with Lin Guang.
As the oscillation period approached its end, the entrance to the Celestial Ladder Secret Realm had stabilized, becoming a relatively stable space rift.
The center of the vast plain seed to be surrounded by a spherical, semi-transparent Spirit Rune Array Barrier.
